White SWELLING.


Mr.. NJ S. Hamlin, one of the best known
insurance men in North Carolina, writes
from Winston, as follows: Ever since I
was seven years of age l have had what
the doctors call hip disease, and which I
call white swelling. My hip was drawn
out of place. There was a swelling at the
knee-joint, where there is profuse run
ming, which has been there for years. OF
course this has greatly depleted my sys-
TEN, together with surgical operation on
the leg bone. I tried every known blood
purifier to build up my system, but none
did me good until / took S. S. s. use it
every spring. 1t always builds me up,
giving me appetite and digestion, and ena-
bles me to stand the long, trying, ener-
waiting, bot summer days. To me there is
no such medicine for purifying the blood
and building up the wasted system as
S. S. S. On using it ] soon became strong
of body and easy OF mind. My color
changed from pale, worn look to =
healthy, robust complexion"
Mr.. G. n. Frizzel, of Farmersville,
Texas, writes: About August LIST, 1865,
an eruption appeared on my arms and
legs. which panied me much and seemed
to affect my physical condition generally.
On the advice of physician at this place,

UNJUST DISCRIMINATION.

In an excellent article upon st. PauFs
wonderful growth and prosperity BRICK
PoMERoY's Democrat, in speaking of the
extensive real estate business done in the
city, does large number of the real estate
men material injustice. The writer of the
article dogmatically says: ''In ST. Paul
there are about $50 real estate agents. of
whom fourth or a fifth perhaps are really
deserving of confidence" Then follows a
list of seventeen firms commended for ''re-
liability and honesty" the inference being
given that the other real estate men of st.
Paul do not possess those essential quail
ties. This is an evident injustice, While
among real estate men, just as among any
other class of business men, an occasional
irresponsible or even rascally person may
be found, as a body they are worthy
of every confidence. There is not
single real estate dealer in the city OF
reputable business standing, through
whom investments cannot be made with the
certain surety that the interests of the Gus
toner will be carefully looked after and
guarded. The wonderful growth of st.
Paul is largely due to the energy and activ-
ity of her numerous real estate men, and it
is unfair, as well as grossly wrong. that
that invidious distinction should be drawn.
There is no doubt that the gentlemen cited
by the Democrat are worthy of every con-
fdence, but no more so than scores of
Others whose names are not given the same
prominence, but who, by implication, are
accused of untrustworthiness.

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS.

The beginning Of the new year is the
season when we make the good resolutions
whose wrecks generally strew the pathway
OF the rest of the year. No matter what
reformation we have in view there is sin
gular fatality for postponing it until the
commencement of the next year. And per-
haps this very disposition to procrastinate
is the secret of the failure in keeping the
resolutions we make. OF all the frailtieS of
human nature there is none followed with
more fatal results than the disposition to
temporiZe. The lack of decision of charac-
ter. the inability to act with firmness and
promptness in emergencies, is a deplorable
weakness in human nature. The men who
succeed, as a rule. are those who quickly
determine what course to pursue, and are
prompt to act. Caution and conservatism
are all proper enough in their places but
they are not always winning quail
ties in the active competition of
business life. The most conspicuous
examples of business success are
exhibited by men who possessed the nerve
and grit to wade right in and grasp oppor-
tunities whenever and wherever presented.
why should not the same principle apply
in the regulation of moral conduct? If we
are resolved upon turning over new leaf
in our moral or social conditions, why the
necessity for postponing the reformation to
the beginning of a new year? 1t would be
better to put the good resolution into effect
the moment it is formed. A good resolution
is stronger at its birth than afterwards if
left to it's own support for any length of
time. Good resolutions need bracing. and
the sooner the props are put under the more
probability of their being able to stand. A
resolution formed at New Year and put into
immediate execution is apt to hold out A
resolution that was formed last year and
postponed for action until the new year is
Just as apt to fail. 1t has been so reduced
by starvation during its long period of pro-
crastination that it hasn't strength to hold
